Learning how to use the digital program Procreate. “Painted” this image of cherry blossoms from a reference photo of an autumnalus cherry tree in my back yard. Beautiful tree – sometimes blooms twice a year in the Spring and Fall. Amazed at the capability of Procreate. Painted this back to front. Like the ability to layer. Can create a layer, then blur it a bit – creates a nice atmospheric perspective. This piece came alive when I figured out how to blur and erase within a layer. Was able to really define the edges of the petals. Sometimes, success is as much about removing something as it is adding something.
